My name is Inge A. Niefer, I was born in Germany (Heidelberg) on June 19th 0f 1960. I live in Brazil for 8 years now, in Curitiba, state of Paraná. I studied forest sciences in Freiburg, Germany, at the Albert-Ludwigs-Universität. The master degree in forest sciences I obtained in Brazil, at the Federal University of Paraná. I worked with biological control of forest pests. Currently I am pursuing phd in forest sciences, again at the Federal University of Paraná. My thesis will be about marketing strategies for the introduction of ecotourism in protected areas.
Beside nature, I love to "play" capoeira, an afro- brazilian martial art. For more information, there are some links on the Links-page. Soon I will make a homepage about that, especially history of capoeira in Paraná.
I also love to chat on IRC. I usually visit the channels #funfactory, #brasil30+, #brasil-usa, #chatoholics. My nickname is BeijaFlor.

So......here I am :)).....
 
 

                                     
 

The picture on beach was taken on another beautiful island of the bay of Paranaguá, the Ilha das Peças. In the background can be seen the Ilha Superaguí.
